ItalianoGACKT, shows his sit ups live 「Girls say “Wow” in bed」
On the 4th, GACKT (43), who uploads footage of this daily trainings on SNS and is known for his physical beauty, appeared at a PR event held in Tokyo. At the event, he showed off the training that he does, and even lifted his shirt to show off his impressive abs at the end.
The PR event that GACKT appeared at was for the muscle supplement 『Metal Muscle HMB』, which he is the promotional figure for. GACKT, who revealed today that he weighs 68.9kg, and has a body-fat percentage of 7%, said that he originally trains for 3 hours a day but for these 3 months, without doing any weight training, he only needs to train for 40 minutes a day using his own body weight while consuming these supplements.
His training program includes 3 sets of push-ups and sit-ups, with each set lasting 80 times, to bring it to a total of 240 push-ups and 240 sit-ups. He also confessed that 「These push-ups are already difficult when using your own body weight to start with, so by increasing (the number of times) bit by bit, I eventually got here」.
The way to do the GACKT-style push-ups is to put both feet up on a chair, and have your hands pointed in the 2 and 10 o’clock directions, or 4 and 8 o’clock directions. In addition, for abs training, he brought his knees to his chest momentarily and then kicked out, said 「You’ll probably feel exhausted after 10 times at the start but you’ll be able to train your back muscles and lose your belly」. Exclamations of shock also came from the reporters who were gathered there when GACKT did it.
Then, he said, 「What’s important is that you do it everyday」, and gave a simple explanation, saying 「Everyone, when you brush your teeth you don’t think anything of it right. If it becomes a habit (it’s nothing). It’s only tough because you do it occasionally」. He touched on it’s effects, saying 「The effects will only appear in line with how much you do. In terms of fats, you’ll lose around 3 to 4 kg」, and he also said that it was better to not base whether or not you grew fatter or slimmer by your weight, 「We’re not cows. What’s important is that you control your body fat percentage well」 he added, telling everyone the trick to it.
GACKT said 「Don’t you want to grow older with a good body. I’d really hate to become a useless uncle past the age of 40」, and when he was asked 「What’s the good thing about training your body」 he replied with a grin 「I wonder… Well, I guess it’s that girls go “wow” when you undress. In bed」, exciting the venue. And when a reporter requested 「Please show us your body」, he said 「Just a little? I’ll show you」 and raised his shirt, revealing beautifully trained muscles. Upon getting the venue even more excited, he went to backstage with a confident smile.
